Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 40.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.74.
- ✓ Safe hands — 5 catches in 13 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 13 matches — 0.46 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 12 innings at 22.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 9 wickets in 11 matches bowled in (of 13 played) — 0.82 per match at 21.4, economy 3.74, strike rate 34.4.
